Best skills to start Black Myth: Wukong

If the RPG’s skill tree has you a little confused, we recommend which ones to get first.While it’s true that Black Myth: Wukong’s approach to RPG is different from other titles, that doesn’t make it any easier to master. In Game Science ‘s game , you’ll have tons of skill trees with techniques to unlock, and during the beginning of your adventure, the game’s offerings may be overwhelming . If you’re not sure which path to take to maximize the sparks you spend, today I recommend a few skills that I consider essential for the first stages of the game.

Best skills to start Black Myth: Wukong

Well, before we start, I’ll say that after we’ve broken down the skills, we’re going to explore the usefulness and why of each one. On the other hand, there are a lot of possibilities, and this list doesn’t mean that other combinations are unfeasible. In the end, in a game with as much openness as this one, there’s a lot of room to experiment and find your own style. That said, let’s look at the recommendations:

Focused Attack 2 or 3

Staff Poses

Posing skills

Much of Black Myth: Wukong’s depth of gameplay comes from the different poses you can use . Each pose has its own strengths and weaknesses, and starting to practice with them early on will give you more variety in gameplay when facing its challenges.

Passive skills

Ape Agility is one of the must-have upgrades in the game , as it will greatly help improve your dodging performance. On the other hand, Poise is also related to this, allowing you to follow up combos while dodging. With how active the bosses are in this game, it will become the mainstay of your gameplay.

On the other hand, we have skills like Focus Attack , which are always worth investing points in, as they will earn you focus points. If you add Exaltation to this, you will have a new source of health that, although it will not heal you for life, will help you stay fresh during some tense moments in fights.

Stats Skills

With Good Constitution and Overflowing Vigor , you’ll be making the relatively small health and stamina bars you start with much larger. My recommendation is to aim to level each of these skills up to level 3 during the early stages of the game. By Chapter 2 (or early Chapter 3), you may need more levels here.
